Answer:

The correct answer is option A, that is, the leading edges of both plates are bent downward.

Explanation:

A subduction zone refers to the biggest crash scenario on Earth. These boundaries signify the collision between two of the tectonic plates found on the planet Earth. The plates refer to the components of crust, which gradually passes across the surface of the planet over many years.  

When two of the tectonic plates comes in contact at a subduction zone, one slides and bends beneath the other, moving down into the mantle. Tectonic plates can mediate both oceanic and continental crust, or they may be formed of only one type of crust. Being denser than continental crust, the oceanic crust generally sinks into the mantle underneath the lighter continental crust at a subduction zone.

Which of these statements does not describe a carbon atom? A. Carbon is a metallic element. B. Carbon has four valence electrons
andrezito [222]
A carbon atom is not a metallic element.  Its location on the periodic table indicates that it is a non metal since the further right something is on the periodic table, the less metallic that element is.

Complete the table by filling in the formula for the ionic compound formed by each pair of cations and anions, as shown for the
Kitty [74]
In chemistry, the elements that exist with electrical charges are called ions. These ions can carry a positive charge, for which they are called cations, or a negative charge, for which they are called anions. These ions carry an electric charge because they do not conform to the stable number of electrons of their neutral atom. Because of this, they carry excess electrons for cations, and a lack of electrons for the anions.

When cations and anions form together such that there is a complete transfer of electrons so that each ion would be neutral, an ionic bond is formed. If you write the reaction, the superscripts and subscripts would just cross-multiply. If the cation is A⁺ᵃ, and the anion is B⁻ˣ, then the ionic compound would then be AₓBₐ. Of x=a, then they will cancel out which will yield AB. Therefore, the ionic compound for each pair of ions are:

NH₄⁺ + OH⁻ = NH₄OH
Mg²⁺ + CO₃²⁻ = MgCO₃
Fe³⁺ + PO₃⁴⁻ = Fe₄(PO₃)₃

At the start of this experiment your vessel will be evacuated. The precision (readability) of your balance is 1 mg, this means m
baherus [9]

Answer:

4.55x10⁻⁴ atm

Explanation:

When the balance is used, it first must be tared, it means that the weight of the vessel will be discounted, so the mass of the gas produced must be above 0.5 mg to be read in the balance.

The molar mass of the CO2 is 44 g/mol, so, for a mass of 0.5 mg = 0.0005 g, the number of moles is:

n = 0.0005/44

n = 0.000011 mol

The ideal gas law is:

PV = nRT

Where P is the pressure, V is the volume, R is the constant of the gases (0.082 atm.L/mol.K), and T is the temperature (30°C = 303 K), so:

P*0.6 = 0.000011*0.082*303

P = 4.55x10⁻⁴ atm

what is the half life isotope if after 21 days you have 31.25 g remaining from a 250.0 g starting sample size?
alexgriva [62]

250 --> 125 --> 62.5 --> 31.25


each arrow equals one half life, so 3 half lives


14 days/ 3 half lives =


4.67 days = half life
